Thanks :-)If you like hard and logical puzzles maybe you'll like this free game in five episodes: Escape to Obion. It's quite an old game, so I checked if it was still online. Luckily it is, this is the link:[link name=]Escape to obion[/link]http://www.skeptictank.net/games/obion1.html[link name=][/link]

I loved it, and I hope that you will like it as well; if yes it will keep you intrigued for quite a while! At the bottom of the page that opens you can find the links for all the episodes (The first is very simple and short, the second harder and longer and the third and the fourth are absolutely crazy!)Too bad you can't save, so if you have not enough time to go on until the end you'd rather take notes on the puzzles already solved to easily repeat them.

Alright that made alot more sense to me and makes me like this game and appreciate it so much more. Part of the reason I didn't understand it was probably because I went in looking at it all as an alternate reality without the memories until the very end.If I'd realized how much memory and the past was tied into it from the very begining, I would have probably understood the ending a bit better.You are correct about the puzzles though! When you get to the desert, it seems to get a bit more logical but before that some things make very little sense as to why you have to do them.

Sadly I am not familiar with Rhem?

Do you know any good games that are online? I find myself now without anything to play and absolutly no money for games! Any suggestions would be quite welcome as I see that you seem to be good at judging games such as these ^.^

I think that it's as you wrote, "we" were dead. I thought to understand the ending in this way... here is my impression that I sent to a friend and she posted it in the Gameboomers forum (I attached the link for the topic, in case you were interested to read some different opinions):

Spoiler:ending

Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text.[/spoiler]I'd like to tell you a simple story: a story about two brothers. Two gifted kids: one of them, the elder, is very keen on scienze and all that implies inventiveness and experimental attitudes, and the younger happens to be more skilled at literary fields of application.One day, at the first melting of ice, the kids go to a half-frozen pond to launch a toy steamboat; they dream of shipping it towards warmer lands. While messing around the younger falls in the pond; his brother, unable to help him with his bare hands, has nothing left but stare at him disappear into the chilled waters with a gruesome sense of guilt.As people say life goes on, and the survived child becomes a scientist; a clever and enlighted man of knowledge. Throughout his researches he gets in touch with ancient techniques verging to separate the distinct functions of human mind that, bound as a whole, allows the being to run an ordinary life in a so-called univocal reality, where time owns irrevocable linear features: present always leaves back the past as plain memories and future follows the present – who knows what

Maybe that at first the man was attracted by the mere scientific aspect of his discoveries, it's not relevant, but a time came when he fully grasped their outermost implications: go back to the past and save his brother's life in order to grant him a future existence.

now I have to say that I didn't like so much the puzzles; some were too easy and some were not strictly logical, but the game was absolutely worth playing!By the way, I'm a Rhem fan!

Funny thing really, I actually beat the game earlier this evening. A little bit shorter than I would have liked but a very nice game indeed.The gameplay flowed pretty well with plenty of story and puzzles that to me were of medium difficulty but then, I play point and clicks more often than the average person.I enjoyed the process to get to the end result but the ending confused me a little. I think I have the gist of it but the loss on my mind makes me feel a bit foolish.

Spoiler:][/spoiler

Highlight this box with your cursor to read the spoiler text.So the brother who you are playing died? He wasn't really there and all of this was in the inventor brother's memory? I know it said throughout the story that there was a memory that was terrible that he kept reliving but the ending was a little unclear to me.

I know thats the artistic value behind it and I'm a bit of a dolt for not getting it but I do appreciate what the creators did with the game as a whole.[spoiler=Ending]

Thanks a lot for telling that you did it (not everyone cares...)! I also appreciated the storyline more than the gameplay, but with such a beautiful (and I MEAN beautiful!)game I felt like forgiving everything!

If you like, I'd be very interested in knowing your opinion on the ending after you'll have finished it.

Have a nice evening!

Actually, your english sounds quite good to me ^.^Also, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. I kept trying to fix the electrical box with the one I opened using the handle and the button puzzle -.- What I finally realized is that you have to use the same one you used to solve the water puzzle, just move the knobs differently!

I feel like a dolt for not catching this sooner and spending many days on forums trying to figure out my problem. But thank you so much for your quick and friendly response!I appreciate that alot! And yes, I am enjoying this game. More-so for the storyline rather than the gameplay itself but still, no complaints here!Thank you again!
